I have to say the tire and wheel selection this time around has been the
hardest out of everything. Since my rear end is not stock, I am able to go with a bigger backspace. Figuring that and deciding on which wheel I can use (one's that I like) has aged me ten years :crazy. Not to mention the fact that I ordered two M/T ET's that didn't fit. That was only $750. I was able to send them back but will eat $170 for shipping. Please, no salt Dave! :zip I have narrowed it down to two drag radials that I like and that will fit. The Nitto 555r and the BFG G-Force drag radial for the rears. For the front I will use a tire from the same manufacture that looks the closest in tread pattern as the rear. The Nitto extreme and the KDWII respectively. I know what Darreld will say :naug Anyway, here are my wheel choices. I just need to decide between the two.
I just found these the other day and like them.

And these, the FR500, I thought I made up my mind on these until I seen the racelines. If I decide on the FR500s, they will be silver 9/10's
